Gold Dollars, Type 1,2,3.
PM me.

ambro51 · January 2, 2014 10:20AM

I second Liefgolds "expertise" level. The Man knows these coins. Not in the coin field but I understand and teach wet plate photography and manufacture cameras if that era. I can offer some help with very early images.

savoyspecial · January 2, 2014 10:20AM

Counterstamped coinage
Oddball/exonumia (emphasis on engraved pieces)
Large Cents - middle dates 1816-1839

PM's are welcome

I'll second this for Tyler. I have bugged him a few times and he was more than helpful.

A big +1 here!

cladking · January 2, 2014 10:59AM

<< I know nothing. >>

Same here.

But I do know the extent of my ignorance in circulating moderns (especially quarters).

gamr0n · January 2, 2014 11:18AM

Proof coins from 1950-1964 and SMS coins from 1965-1967 including varieties.

I also dabble in business strikes of the same dates when coins of exceptional eye appeal can be found.

People can PM me, but this isn't a very tough area... and I'm not nearly as qualified as many of the other posters.

Let's be honest, most numismatists are very well versed or if you prefer, expert, in one or maybe two areas.

Those who list several different series most likely are of the type "jack of all trades, master of none"

This is my first post in almost two years. Looking forward to getting back into these boards. And such a simple but great idea! Thanks Pat.

Areas of interest:

Flowing hair half dollars, R5 and up;

Lincoln Varieties and yes they may.

MGLICKER · January 2, 2014 1:09PM

Morgan Dollars are my bailiwick, though I defer the title of expert to many better schooled forum members.

I am always glad to share my knowledge.

SurfinxHI · January 2, 2014 1:11PM

Forensics. Specifically anthropology. Dead people are better with no flesh on, btw.

Coins? Expert? Ha! No way. Still a neophyte. But I do like and enjoy Morgans and peace dollars.

howards · January 2, 2014 4:59PM

Shield nickel varieties. Happy to help with attributions, prefer not to get involved in "what's it worth" discussions.

WaterSport · January 3, 2014 12:21AM

Cherry picking pre 1934 variety Lincoln cents...if you do not know what your selling...I do.

I have extensive experience with unsuccessful home renovations, and could tell you what not to do and, importantly, the sequence not to do it in.

I've trained several terriers so that they only crap on our best and most expensive rugs.

I have a technique to convince teenagers of the importance of doing homework, which they fully understand, totally buy into and then completely ignore.

I'm a skilled chef, as evidenced by the fact that I once set my apartment on fire while making a can of Campbell's chicken noodle soup.

Also, I've have been a collector, researcher and then dealer in colonial and early American coins for most of my life, and I am happy to try to help anyone at anytime with any questions in this field.

Welcome back Ronyahski ! I've always enjoyed when you have posted images of your Proof Seated type.

CBJesse · January 3, 2014 3:20AM

I focus on Capped Bust coinage and it's literature, while I am certainly no expert by any means, I'd be happy to share what I know. I've also asked many questions myself, so if I don't know the answer, I'll probably be able to point you to someone who does.

Jesse

spy88 · January 3, 2014 4:56AM

Although I've been a collector of FS and DCam Jeffersons for many years, there are several other
forum members with as much if not more expertise then myself. I know who they are and they
know who they are...so I'll let them chime in if they wish.

And there is one expert of the Jefferson series ATS that may top all others. I can refer PMers to him.

JohnHarper · January 3, 2014 5:15AM

I will be happy to respond to questions about John Harper.

thisnamztaken · January 3, 2014 10:55AM

My numismatic interests have evolved from Standing Liberty Quarters, through small sized paper money, to Draped and Capped Bust type coins, but really only have enough knowledge/experience with them to be dangerous, so others here would be a much better resource for relevant info.

I am fairly knowledgeable regarding growing various types of roses, especially OGR's ("Old Garden Roses") if anyone has questions about those and have done quite a bit of Bible study over the years, especially the New Testament, and would be open to fielding a few of those questions.

MGLICKER · January 18, 2014 10:37AM

Ahem!

dpoole · January 18, 2014 10:58AM

I've been collecting and looking at a back-water, i.e. Three Cent Nickel proofs, for a decade or so now. I'd be happy to help anyone with the series to the extent that I can.

ad4400 · January 18, 2014 11:18AM

I've been working on my buffalo nickel set for upwards the decade and feel I have something to offer. Feel free to PM me.

AUandAG · January 18, 2014 11:34AM

I am good at patience. Happy to help anyone new to the hobby with all sorts of questions and those
in need of direction. I like mentoring.
I know a bit about CC dollars and coinage but am not THE expert on them.

SkyMan · January 18, 2014 4:26PM

Not an expert, but know something about Franklins. I'm also reasonably decent with space memorabilia from ~ 1960 - 1975.

TwoSides2aCoin · January 18, 2014 6:46PM

I know just enough about coins to stay broke.

jmcu12 · January 18, 2014 7:44PM

I know enough to be dangerous in

Wells Fargo so-called dollars and other related exonumia.
1890 CC Tailbar VAM 4 Morgan dollars
Errors - coins mostly.

I love this forum in general - so much knowledge in one space! Wow!

HalfCollector · January 19, 2014 12:19AM

I am familiar with the Reeded Edge Half Dollars and will always be happy to answer any questions if PM'ed as best I can.

ElmerFusterpuck · January 19, 2014 12:24AM

While I also don't consider myself an expert, I do feel comfortable discussing Bust and Seated halves and on what to look for when buying circulated coins of this series.

Walkerfan · January 19, 2014 12:41AM

If you haven't already guessed; I know a little bit about Walkers.

Anyone can PM me anytime that they'd like and I will offer my suggestions.

dpoole · April 29, 2020 12:58PM

It's been a few years since this thread was updated.

Anyone willing to state and share their expertise, if someone wanted to PM you with a question?

Yes - generally speaking, classic U.S. coins.

joeykoins · April 29, 2020 1:04PM

Off topic. How in the world could there only be " 12 views" with all those comments? Lol Is it just me?

DIMEMAN · April 29, 2020 1:19PM

I am always willing to talk about Dime's varieties with anybody. I will always give my best opinion.

asheland · April 29, 2020 1:22PM

Antique silver/ hallmarks, etc.
I welcome PMs

koynekwest · April 29, 2020 1:35PM

I've been collecting Buffalo nickels for nearly 60 years so I feel comfortable with that series. And also doubled (and tripled and quadrupled and even quintupled) dies, which I've been heavily involved with for more than 30 years.

Feel free to contact me on these things. I will answer to the best of my ability.

ThreeCentSilverFL · April 29, 2020 3:25PM

Coin related; I'm working on becoming an expert on Walkers and Three Cent Silvers. You all have, and continue to help.

Work related; I'm a private sector Building Construction/Material Scientist. I specialize in the building enclosure (walls, windows, roofing, balconies, amenity decks, below grade, etc. ) and I help Owners, Architects and Contractors with designing and making better decisions regarding their building enclosure systems.

seanq · April 29, 2020 3:32PM

Error coins in general, clipped planchets in particular. I know a little about die varieties too, though I am more of a generalist than many others here.

Sean Reynolds

BustDMs · April 29, 2020 3:45PM

I might know a little about bust die marriages.

Jimnight · April 29, 2020 3:54PM

I'm pretty good with parking lot finds and identifying green corrosion.
